There was a mad bible man outside just now. He forecast the end of the world, latte in one hand, and only SECONDS later it started to rain!

Adam, you should take him as your lord and saviour. Not mine, though.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 14 February 2005 21:25 (twenty-one years ago)

cool!

on my first date with my most longtime gf, this homeless-looking guy came strolling up to us, singing a song whose main lyrics were "do you know im having sex with you right now in my mind?". it was incredible.

Was he singing it to you, her or both of you?

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 14 February 2005 21:35 (twenty-one years ago)

i assumed it was to her. maybe to her and to this other woman in the crosswalk with us. not to me, at least.

matos, you're starting to scare me. if i didn't know better i'd say your name was actually josh levin, you drove a ford bronco, and we both graduated from Calvert Hall High in '95.

Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Monday, 14 February 2005 21:48 (twenty-one years ago)

cuz josh said "cool" in resp. to EVERYTHING (or if it was a negative thing he'd say "that's not cool")

Raymond Cummings (Raymond Cummings), Monday, 14 February 2005 21:50 (twenty-one years ago)

that's not cool

anyway, the guy playing guitar on the street corner and bringing cool back to the plebes is in a band--the Magic Tunnels!

Matos-Webster Dictionary (M Matos), Monday, 14 February 2005 21:58 (twenty-one years ago)

cool!

Can someone post that picture of Damo Suzuki where he's got the hat on and holding the guitar from when he used to busk? (Thanks!)

34th Street-Herald Square station today was this family who were dancing and playing guitar and bongos, and they had a really small kid (maybe 5 or 6?) singing. They were so cool.
